I did some checking on The Eagles fan club and went

when I saw that I had to fork out $60 just to be an "exclusive" member! Now I did not check into the details of what membership priviliges gain me (other than I can pre-order concert tickets and avoid Ticketmaster Hell on Saturday a.m.), but I thought that was excessive. (Annual fee, BTW, not a "lifetime" membership.)
A friend told me he had checked into the Fleetwood Mac fan club and it was $75.
So anyone out there belong (and pay) to an "official" fan club? And what do you get for your bucks?
